Shadows lengthen

Warwickshire 136 for 2 (16 overs). Powell 42, Trott 15.

Few alarms against the spinners so Glamorgan have brought back Gillespie - the last throw of the dice.

47 needed from 14. Nice n'easy.

The shadows are lengthening across the vivid green of the outfield. I wonder if, many years from now, even 100, 120 years, cricket enthusiasts will leaf through old, yellowing Wisdens and come across this match and say: "Ah, that looks like a jolly compact team performance from Warwickshire".

Richard Johnson out for a couple of weeks with a chipped bone in his thumb. So wonder if Frost will play as batsman when Tim keeps next game. Lee Daggett is 2 weeks away from returning, Boyd Rankin due back early August.
